Is it 100% confirmed now that the DMCA is from Nintendo themselves? I find it weird that they’d go after (initially small) forks when Ryujinx exists.
The Suyu team also hosts their code under https://git.suyu.dev, so I wouldn’t exactly call it dead (yet).
There is no confirmation that this came from Nintendo, nor does it list the actual infringing parts like a normal takedown request should.
I’m glad Suyu wants to carry on the legacy of Yuzu. Many forks are just reuploads of yuzu with no new commits.
I mean, if you’re going to scream “I’m doing this!” as loud as you can, it’s not a surprise when you get noticed.
That was the intention. Even the name Suyu is to bring more eyes
So it was all for show?
Nah it’s a real project that’s continuing Yuzu’s work, but only half their project is continuing the emulator. The other half is sticking the middle finger to Nintendo, and doing that requires being really obnoxious and loud.
Suyu is a pun for “Sue you”, which Nintendo would love to do
Now I need to consider Gitea and Codeberg. Thanks for the reminder GitLab.
Don’t use Gitea, use Forgejo - it’s a hard fork of Gitea after Gitea became a for-profit venture (and started gating their features behind a paywall).
Codeberg has switched to Forgejo as well.
Also, there’s some promising progress being made towards ActivityPub federation in Forgejo! Imagine a world where you can comment on issues and send/receive pull requests on other people’s projects, all from the comfort of a small homeserver.
ActivityPub integration on git remote repos sounds very interesting. Thanks for sharing that, I’ll definetely take a look at Codeberg/Forgejo.
Can’t wait for forge federation, it’s super annoying that I need an account for each individual instance just to report a bug
What features are paywalled?
From here:
- SAML
- Branch protection for organizations
- Dependency scanning (yes, there are other tools for this, but it’s still a feature the open source version doesn’t get).
- Additional security controls for users (IP allowlisting, mandatory MFA)
- Audit logging
radicle.xyz checks those boxes, but it’s gossip protocol, not activitypub.
Still cool, though.
doesnt have issue tracker
It does, but it’s a little obtuse to use.
oh it must of benn a new update
They’re required to take down content following a DMCA takedown request. It’s up to the uploader to counterclaim if they’re so inclined, at which point they’re able to put it back up.
codeberg also removes piracy related projects… gitea is certainly an option tho
Self-hosting Forgejo is a way to go.
seems like that’s what suyu did
That’s great, it seems like Suyu is taking this seriously and actually wants to continue development of the emulator. Many forks of yuzu just look like reuploads of the original repo with no new commits.
Just torrented it out of spite. I don’t even care about the system…I own one and I don’t play it because they got the A and B buttons backwards (that’s a joke)
Edit: also, everyone should see this.
they got the A and B buttons backward
I can’t tell if you’re joking or what
I have permanent Xbox brain, so I’d say they made an oopsie daisy even though I grew up on SNES
I don’t know about this one, I have ps/xbox brain as well, but putting confirm on the right side somehow always made more sense to me, even though my muscle memory doesn’t agree.
FWIW, the PlayStation was meant to have the Nintendo button layout too. In Japan, O is synonymous with “yes/good” sort of like a check mark (✅) and X means “no/bad”. So the X and O buttons were meant to be used in that way. But western game devs didn’t know that, and designed their games with X as confirm and O as decline.
That is so interesting, thanks!
Still, its a weird situation right?
Definitely, good thing button mapping is becoming more mainstream.
Yeah! You sure showed them!
Codeberg next?
They already have their own Forgejo instance at git.suyu.dev
No one wants Nintendo’s wrath. Who can blame them.
Not too surprising but still disappointing regardless. Self-hosting is the only way to go for this.
Another, even better way is IPFS.
Regulators can take down your self hosted site. They cannot take it down if everyone has a piece of it (IPFS).
Works just like torrents do. Spread it out, and no one can stop it.
Still selfhosted, kind of, but by everyone.
Sounds like piracy with extra steps
deleted by creator
If someone needs the name of the next fork, I’d suggest “Yutu”. (or Ettu)
We need federation of sourceforges FFS.
I’ve been seeing for a while comments like yours that put a license link at the end of the comment. Can you explain to me the benefits of doing that or is it makes any difference? If I’m not mistaken the content posted on a Lemmy instace adheres to the license that the instance is using.
It’s purely for commercial AI on my end. Researchers have gotten LLMs to spit out their training data: street addresses, medical data, entire comments, and of course licenses.
Some countries are still deciding whether commercial LLMs are infringing on copyright by training on copyrighted material without approval, others have already decided. I think the major economical zones that will impact legality will be the USA, EU, and China.Until a decision has been made, I’ll continue adding the “free for all except commercial use” license.
Also, copyright is very complicated. If you copy an entire article from a newspaper and paste it into a post on a lemmy instance, which license does it have? That of the newspaper or that of the lemmy instance? If it’s the former, then what’s the difference if it comes from your brain and not a newspaper? Would it make a difference if the comment were written first on a blog and then copied to lemmy? If it’s the latter, then what’s the point point of the newspaper or the author ever copyrighting it somewhere else if it can just be overridden?
Next question regarding copyright, since comments are copied and stored on different servers, who would then own the copyright? The lemmy instance sending the comment or the one receiving it?I’m not a lawyer and probably things aren’t clear cut. Might be one in one country and a different thing in another.
You’re wasting your time, and you look stupid doing it. Absolutely no one cares about your little link or what it says. It won’t stop a single thing.
Are you adding it manually or do you have some sort of automation?
I have a keyboard shortcut that inserts it. So, kinda manually. Would be great if it were like on the old bb forums with signatures.
Dude thinks he’s defeating reality with Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V
Still mad it isn’t named 2zu
At least it seems suyu has devs now though
SuYu is a way better name given why it was created in the first place.
“sue-you”. Suyu. it’s a clever wordplay. i love it.
So uhhh, what now
That links to gitlab
No. Thays links to a self hosted Forgejo.
The readme file, gitmodules file, and other links within that repo all still reference the now-dead gitlab links. The builds don’t seem to be present at all.
That will all probably be fixed soon enough but right now that mirror which seems to have just been pushed as-is isn’t entirely usable.
Oh, must have clicked a link in the repo
that’s not gitlab
Yea, I was wrong lmao
another one will rise no doubt, either they use a platform that doesn’t care for DMCA’s or they play the whack-a-mole game with the enforcers
ironically suyu is still up on github
and of course ryujinx hasn’t received any legal threats yet
We need android ryunjinx
i heard that’s already in development, so it probably will come sooner or later
They will have to self-host their own Git instance.
Isn’t gitlab owned by M$?
GitHub is, Gitlab isn’t
Alright understood 👍👍
They aren’t you’re thinking of Github, though Gitlab is far from immune to corporate corruption.
it’s hosted elsewhere
Hail hydra
Aren’t there any git services hosted in countries like Russia?
